One of the deck archetypes that I am looking to build in the Streets of New Capenna Standard is the Naya or Cabaretti Aggro. The current support lands to these colors are already stable enough, and with the new tri-land inclusion and some Treasure-producing creatures, it is now possible to curve an aggressive start for an aggro deck build. That is also with lesser worries on the color screw.
Here below is what I think the decklist would look like. Do take note of the new Capenna cards added.
The main deck’s typical lineup of mana dudes to ramp out the best creatures and Esika’s Chariot as early as possible. With the same enough mana, various cards can be combined and more tokens can be generated.
Jetmir, Nexus of Revels is the superstar creature in the deck, providing pump effects and more so if you control six or more and nine or more creatures. Jinnie Fay acts as a major token converter with the choices of 2/2 hasty Cats or 3/1 vigilant Dogs. Having spare Treasure tokens turned into creatures is just a good advantage.
The deck’s utility cards such as Cabaretti Charm, Valorous Stance, Fable of the Mirror Breaker, Wedding Announcement, and The Wandering Emperor are to be used for various board scenarios i.e. spot removal, generating more creature token threats, etc.
Overall, the Cabaretti Aggro is a recommended aggro deck build for a new look and feel of the cards from the Streets of New Capenna set. Let me know what you think of this list and what you would recommend in the comment box below.
That is a wrap for now, until the next blog post.
